INTRODUCTION, 

WjL PREFACE to a Monumental Registej^ 
may be thought superfluous, since the Object and Utility of 
it is too evident to require Illustration; yet the Compiler of 
the following Sheets, is unwilling that his Undertaking 
should be submitted to his Patrons and the Public, withouf 
a few prefatory Remarks, as usual, on the Publication of 
a Book* 

An Epitaph, in many Instances, may be denominated a 
Biographical Sketch of the deceased's Life ; since it often 
records their many Virtues and amiable Qualities, and is. 
very justly considered, the last Tribute of Love and Respect, 
tee can pay to a departed Friend. A Record of this kind 
may also frequently be found of Importance as a Reference 
in Cases where more immediate Information as to the Date 
and Place ofthet Demise is not obtainable, and this latter 
Consideration, operated as powerfully as any other, to in- 
duce the Compiler to undertake the Publication* 

Some Years ago, a similar Work, entitled Asiattcvs, 
was published by Mr. Hawkes worth ; since zohen, the Ori- 
ental Obituary, by Mr. Urquhart, of Madras, 'has ap- 
peared; and the Compiler of the present Work, thus pub- 
licly offers his Acknowledgement for the great Assistance he 
has derived from both those Publications,; the Contents of 

which, as far as corresponded with the Object of the Monu^ 

 ■■■■, •■ ■* 

mental Register, he has borrowed.

The Work is rendered as Interesting as a Publication 
of the kind can possibly be, from a Variety of miscellaneous 
Information j interspersed throughout it. The Compiler 
submits the Work to his Patrons and Friends, with a Con* 
fide nee, that they will indulgently pass over any trivial 
Inaccuracies that may appear, and icith an Assurance, that 
the distinguished Patronage, with which the Undertaking 
has been honour ed, will ever be contemplated with Pridia

X HE first stone of St. John's Church was laid on Tuts* 
day, the 6th day of April, 1784, on the morning of which 
Mr. Wheler, acting president, gave a public breakfast at 
the Old Court House, whence he proceeded, attended by the 
great officers of state, and the principal inhabitants of Cal- 
cutta, to the ground upon which the Sacred Edifice was to be 
erected : the first stone was kid by Mr. Wheler, with the 
usual ceremonies. A Prayer was read on the occasion by 
the Reyerend W. Johnson, senior chaplain. On a plate 
pi copper, grooved in the stone, is the following Inscription ; 

The first stone of this. Sacred Building,

On the 24th of June, 1787, the Church was consecrated** 
and dedicated to St. John* The Reverend William Joskj 
son and the ReTerend Thomas Blanshard were chaplains : 
Earl Cornwallis attended, with all the great officers of 
state : during the Anthem a collection was made for the be. 
nefit of the Charity School, amounting to sicca rupee* 
3943-3. 

Sir John Zoffanny bestowed on the Church that ad- 
mirable Altar-piece, representing " TAe Last Supper*' 9 
It was proposed by the rtefrerend W. Johnson a'nd Mr. 
CtjdBERt Thornhill, as Sir John Zopfany was about 
leaving Calcutta, to present him with a Ring of 5000 ru* 
pees value, in consideration of this signal exertion of his 
eminent talents : the low state of their funds prevented every 
other member of the committee from supporting the motion 
of Messrs. Johnson and Thornhill, but they unanimous, 
ly agreed in' sending to Sir John Zoffanny an honourable 
written testimonial of the respect in which they held hit 
great abilities as an artist. From their handsome and ap« 
propriate letter* the following is a paragraph : 

" We should Ao a violence to your delicacy* were we to eiprest, 
or endeavour to express, in such terms as the occasion calls for, our* 
sense of the favour you have conferred on the settlement by presenting 
to their Place of Worship so capital a Painting that W wotld adorn 
the first Church in Europe*, and should excite in the breasts of its 
spectators those sentiments of virtae and piety so happily portrayed ia 
the figures." ' 



GOVERNOR JOB CHARNOCK, 

THE FOUNDER OF CALCUTTA. 

Mr. ChAAnock wis the first Englishman who made & 
conspicuous figure in the political theatre of India* He wis 
the founder of the British Settlement at Calcutta ; and may 
be said to hare laid the first stone of the mighty fabric? 6f 
our Indian Empire. 

% When peace was established between the great Emperor 
Aurungzebe and the English Company, Job Charnocjc, 
the Company's Chief at Hoogly twice removed the Factory, 
and in the year 1689-90, finally formed an English settle- 
ment at Calcutta, which, ere one century terminated, be. 
came a mighty City — the Magazine of Trade— -the Arbitress 
of Kingdoms — and the Seat of Empire. 

Mr. Orme says, " Mr. Charnock was a man of cou- 
rage, without military experience J but impatient to take 
revenge on a Government, from which he had personally 



j£C*ired the most ignominious treatment, having been im- 
prisoned and scourged by the Nabob." 

The sense of such an indignity was, doubtless, deeply 
rooted in the mind pf Charnock, and, perhaps, was one of 
the reasons for that severe usage of the natives, ascribed to 
foip by Captain Hamilton. 

Before, or about the year 1678-p, Mr. Charnock, smit 
with the" charms of a young and beautiful Hindoo, who' 
decked with her most pompous ornaments, and arrayed in 
^er fairest drapery, was at the point of sacrificing an in- 
nocent life, of (perhaps) fifteen summers on the altar of 
Paganism, directed his guards to seize the- half-unwilling 
victim ; the obedient guards rescued her from ao untimely 
death, and Charnocjl softly conducted her to his house. 
They lived together many years. She bore to him several 
children, and dying shortly after the foundation of his new 
city, was interred at the Mausoleum, which this-day stands 
entire, and Is the oldest piece of masonry'in Calcutta. 

If we are to credit Captain Hamilton (who had the 
•tory from eiisting authorities) his sorrow for the loss of 
this lady was unbounded, and the public method he took of 
avowjng his love, was carried to an unusual though innocent 
excess. So long as he lived, he, on the anniversary day of 
her death, sacrqficed a Cock in her Mausoleum. We now, 
through the veil of Jime, cannot trace his reasons for this ex* 
traordjnary ceremony. We refer the reader to the Kpitapbs 
for further information respecting Charnock's family and 
connections' in India. 

From ad oral tradition still prevalent among the natives 
at Barrackpore (now an established military cantonment, 
fourteen miles distant from Calcutta)** we learn that Mr. 
Charnock built aJBungalow there, am) a flourishing bazar 
arose under his patronage before the settlement of Calcutta 
had been determined on. Barrackpore \s at this-day best ' 
known to the natives by the old name of Chanock, and 
Captain Hamilton, misled by their method of pronunciation, 
invanably writes the name without the letter r. 

Governor Job Charnock died' on tho 10th of January, 
}69$, and if the dead knew any of the living, and could be* 
hold with mortal feelings this sublunary world, with what 
sensations would the F^tHEfi of Calcutta glow to look 
down this day upou liis City." 



T 



* The English' Cantonment at Barrackpore was formed in the year. 
1 J75, and the first bungalow was built there in the month of February, 
about 150 yards from where the flag-staff now stands.

Before the commencement of the year lBOf , the Tombs 
in the (Jemetry of Calcutta had fatten into a state of ir» 
reparable decay i and to prevent any dangerous accident, 
which the tottering ruins threatened to such as approached 
them j it was deemed necessary to pull- down most of them. 
The stone and marble tablets were tarefuRy cleared from 
the rubbishy and laid against the wall of the Uemetry, 
where they now stand.

MRS, FRANCES JOHNSON, 

TBt OLDEST MRIT1SB RESIDENT IN dildl 

on the 3d February/ at her late Dwelling House, to 
tire Northward of the Old Fort, Calcutta, the venerable 
Mrs. Frances Johnson, in the 87th year of her age,fhe oldest 
British Resident in Asia. This Lady, whose name arid cha- . 
xacter, are no doubt, well known to many of our Readers, 
was the second Daughter of Edward Crook, Esq. of 
Herefordshire, Governor of Fort St. David, on the Coast 
pf Coromandel, and was bom on the 10th of ^Apfil, 1718. 
Mr. Crook; , previously to his return from India, was of. 
fered the Government of Fort St. George ; but declined the) 
appointment, on account of his age and infirm health, and 
returned to his native country, where he was received with 
high respect by. the Court of Directors of the East India 
Company* 

* In 1738, Miss Frances Crook, in the 1 3th year of her 
age, married Parrt Purple Tempter, Eta. Nephew to 
Mr. Braddyll*, then governor ot Calcutta, by whom *he> 
had two children, both of whom died young ; in about £?• 
years after her marriage she was left a . widow by the death 
^ f Mr* Templer. She married, secondly, Xgjfss Althasc; 
Esq. a civil servant on the Bengal establishment. — This 
see ond union was of short duration ; in twelve days after 
his marriage, Mr. Althak died of the small pox. 

- Mrs. Axtham remained a widow for atont two years, 
when she married William Watts, Esq. then senior mem- 
her of the Supreme Council, 1 and subsequently appointed 
Governor of Calcutta ; but at the time his appointment 
reached India, he was on his return to England. In 1756, 
when Calcutta was taken by Sura j-ud*Dowxah, Mr. Watt* 
was Chief at Moorshedabad, and both he and Mrs. Watts 
were in that City at the time of the surrender of Fort WiL 
ham. The Nabob, elated by bis momentary success, three- 



teued destruction te> eaery British Subject, wdoand female* 
Mr. Watts and hi* family were placed lo eottodj at Moor* 
ibedabad, to await the- arrival of rbeMabe* ~ tut they were 
both favorites of the Begum, the mother of the Nabob Suaaj- 
ijd-Dowlah, and to her friendship they, mere both indebted 
' for their preserv atio n 5 eft this otcasiea, Mas. Watts was 
placed under the same toe* with the ladies pi the Nabob's 
Court, by whom she was treated with the utoost delicacy, 
kindness, and } respect, M the expiration • of thirty-seven, 
days, and while Ssj*Ar.u»-Do<wi<4ft; still continued in the 
vicinity of Calcutta, the hVgutn fowad a -safe conveyance for 
Mrs. Watts, and sent her, under an escort, by water, to 
Chandernagorej where she was received with all possible 
hospitality and attention by M • l#*oi% the ]Arench Gover* 
nan 

• * 

Hsr hnrband being still closely confined at Moorshedabed, 
Mrs* Watts addressed a nwmerial to her friend ftfaa Begun), 
HotherofSuBA/HEin-DowMH, entreating net kind oSce* 
for the release of fees husband* The Bogus* possessed great 
ascendancy orer her son, the. Nabob, and at hex intercession} 
he consented, though with great reluctance, to the if leas* 
of Mr. Watts, who was thua safely restored to has family, 

Mrs. Watts had four children by her third bttfban J, 
Mr. Watts, one of whom died hvearty fofamy ; with ths> 
#ther three, namely, a bey and two girls, Mr. and Mrs* 
WattS, about the year IT 90, returned to England, where*

retained to Bengal about the year 1769 ;1and on Che' 1st of 
June, 1774, she gave her hand to the Reverend W{£crAst 
Johnsoh, principal chaplain to the Presidency of Port 
William ; wfco returned to England in a few- yeara after tus 
carriage, and Mrs. Johkso^ continued ever since to reside 
in Calcutta, in a style of dignified hospUeiity«~t-Her men* 
mars were cheerful, polished, and bisjMjr pleasing. She 
abounded in anecdote ; And possessing ease an,d aftatfUtty ei 
eoaimuntcattoa, fc«r conversation was always iatereetiae; 
without any tendency toft tigue the hearer. She had a ttroae; 
. understanding, to which she superaded much and accurate 4>fe» 
Myrvtf on«~-j|ar views <rf life were oarrtct, aad ttt banana* 



tene^ <rf W heirt, 4ind ftie warmth of her affection* contfruetf 
tinifflfAired to the latest period of her life. Though jproner 
to reflect andto discriminate, yet her |dSgttent did not 
abridge, but served to guide and-to exatt her benevolence. 
As a Christian she wait aauftd is fcer' principles* and exem- 
plary id her practice ; — in fine, her conduct iu all the rela* 
tions of life was auch as to gab the universal respect and es* 
team of 'society. 

She continued t* anjoy excellent Jrealth fflj a few week* 
ago, when she wat aeiaed with the illness that led to her 
dissolution. , Her epirto were fay and cheerfall ; her facui* 
ties were unimpaired, and her personal strength wa* such* 
that tiB within the last tew months of her life, she' was wont 
to join In tha* country dance at domestic parties. 

Her remains were interred on Tuesday morning, fn the 
ground belonging to St. John's Church. The funeral pro* 
cession began at half past seven o'clock, ahdjpassed through 
Tank-t$uare to the Eastern gate of the Charch-yard ; the 
bell of St. John's tolling, duriog the pracessioo. The body 
was carried in the -Church; end feeing placed before the pul- 
pit, the following Anthem was sung by the Choir, «f compa*

The Reverend Dr. Ward then read the 39th and 00th 
Psalms, and the Lesson from the 15th Chapter of the First

"^At five the Nabob entered the Fort, accompanied br 
his General, Meer Jaffier, and most of the principal officers 
of his army. He immediately ordered Omichund and Kissen. 
dass to be brought before him, and received them with ci. 
>ility ; and having bid some officers go and take possession 
of the Company's treasury, he proceeded to the principal 
apartment of the factory, where he sat in state, and receiv- 
ed the compliments of his court and attendants in magnifi. 
cent expressions of his prowess and good fortune. Soon 
after, he sent for Mr. Hoi well, to whom he expressed much

resentment at the presumption of the English in daring ttf 
defend the Fort, and much dissatisfaction at the smallness 
of the sum found in the treasury, which did not exceed 
50,000 rupees* Mf. Holwell had two other conferencea 
with him on this subject before set en o'clock, when the Na- 
bob dismissed him, with repeated assurances, on the word 
of a soldier, that he should suffer no narm. 

" B£r. HolweD, returning to his unfortunate companions, 
found them assembled, and surrounded by a strong guard. 
Sereral buildings on the north end south sides of the Fort 
were already in flame), which approached with so thick a, 
smoke on either hand, that the prisoners imagined their 
enemies bajl caused this conflagration, in order to suffocate 
them between the two fires. On each side of the eastern 
gate of the Fort extended a range of chambers ^adjoining to 
the curtain, and before .the chambers a varanda, or open 
gallery : it was of arched masonry, and intended to shelter 
the soldiers from the sun and rain, but, being low, almost 
totally obstructed the chambers behind from the light and 
air ; and whilst some of the . guard were looking in other 
parts of the factory for proper places to confine the prison* 
ers during the night, the rest ordered them to assemble in 
ranks under the varanda on the right hand of the gateway t 
where they remained for some tune with so little suspicion 
of thejr. impending fate, that they laughed among themselves 
at the seeming oddity of this disposition, and amused them* 
selres with coojectttring what they should next be ordered 
to do. About eight o'clock, those who had been sent to 
examine the rooms reported, that they had found none fit 
for the purpose. On which the principal officer commanded 
the prisoners to go into one of the rooms* which stood be- 
hind them along the varanda* It was the common r dungeon 
of the garrison, who used to call it, Tht Bldck Hoi*. 
Many of the prisoners, knowing the place, began to expos* 
tulate ; upon which the officer ordered his men to cut down 
those who hesitated ; on which the prisoners obeyed. But, 
before all were within, the room was so thronged, that the 
last entered with difficulty. The guard immediately closed 
and locked the door ; confining 146 persons in a room not 
twenty feet square, with only two small windows, and these 
obstructed by the varanda. 

" It was the hottest season of the year; and the night 
uncommonly sultry, even at this season. The excessive 
pressure of their bodies against one another, and the into- 
lerable heat which prevailed as soon as the door was shut, 
conrinced the prisoners that it was impossible to live through 
the night in this horrible confinement ; and violent attempta 
were immediately made to force the door; but without ef»

ftpt, for it opened inward ; on which many began to give 

* loose to rage. Mr. Holwell, who had placed himself at 
ope of the windows, exhorted them to remain composed 
both in body and mind, as the only means of surviving the 
night, and his remonstrances produced a short interval of 
quiet ; during which *he applied to an old Jemautdar, who 
(ore some marks of humanity in his countenance, promising 
to give him * thousand rupees in the morning, if he would 
separate the prisoners into two chambers. The old man 
went to try, but returning in a few minutes, said it was tm* 
possible : when Mr. Holwell offered him a larger sum : on 
which he retired once more, and returned with the fatal 
sentence, that no relief could he expected, became the No* 
bob was asleep, and no, one dared t,o wake him. 

u In the mean time, every minute had increased their suf- 
ferings. The first effect of their confinement was a pro* 
fuse and continued sweat, which soon produced intoWAble 
thirst, succeeded by excruciating pains in the breast, with 
difficulty of breathing little short of suffocation. Various 
means were tried to obtain more room and air* Every one* 
stripped off his clothes ; every hat was put in motion ; 
and thefe methods affording no relief, it was proposed that 
they should all sit down on their hams at the same time, 
und, a#er remaining a little while in this posture, rise 
all together. This fatal expedient was thrice repeated be* 
fore they had been confined an ljour • ajid every time, se- 
veral^ unable to rear themselves again, fell, and were' 
trampled to death by their companions. Attempts were, 
again made to force the door, which, failing as before, re. 
doubled their rage : but the thirst increasing, nothing but 

* Water! Water I* became, soon after, the general cry. 
The good jemautdar immediately ordered some skins of 
water to be brought to the windows ; but, instead, of re- 
lief, his beqevoienc^ became a more dreadful cause of de- 
struction ; for the sight of the waiter, threw e^ery one into 
such excessive agitations and livings, that, unafete to resist 
this violent impulse of nature, none could wait to be regu- 
larly- served ; but each, with the utmost ferocity > battled 
against those who were likely to get it before him ; and, ' in 
these conflicts, many were either pressed to death by the 
efforts of others, or suffocated by their own. This scene, 
instead of producing compassion in the guard without, only 
excited their mirth ; and they held up lights to the bars, in 
order to have the diabolical satisfaction of viewing the de- 
plorable contentions of the sufferers within; who, finding 
it. impossible to get any water whilst it was thus furioupty 
4»putedj at length suffered those who were nearest to. th*

Windows to convey it in their hats to those behind thetm 
It proved no relief either to their thirst, or other suffering* ; 
for the fever increased every moineot with the increasing 
depraVity of the air in the dungeon, which had been so often 
respired, and was saturated with the hot and deleterious 
effluvia of putrifying bodies ; of which the stench was little 
less than mortal. Before midnight, all who were alive, and 
had not partaken of the air at the windows, were either in 
a lethargic stupifaction, or raving with delirium. Every 
Kind of invective and abuse was uttered, in hopes of pro* 
Yoking the guard to put an end to their miseries, by firing 
into the dungeon; and whilst some were blaspheming their. 
Creator with the frantic execrations of torment in despair, 
heaven was implored by others with wild and incoherent pray- 
ers ; until the weaker, exhausted by these agitations, at 
length laid down quietly, and expired on the bodies of their 
dead or agonizing friends. Those who still survived in the in- 
ward part of the dungeon, finding that the water had afford* 
«d them no relief, made efforts to obtain air, by endea- 
vouring to scramble over the heads of those who stood be. 
tween them and the windows, where the utmost strength of 
•very one was employed for two hours, either in maintaining 
his own ground, or in endeavouring to get that of which 
others were in possession. All regards of compassion and 
affection were lost, and no one would recede or give way 
for the relief of another. Faintness sometimes gave short 
pauses of quiet, but the first motion of any one renewed the 
struggle through all, under which, ever and anon, some one 
sunk to rise no more. At two o 9 clock not more than fifty , 
remained alive. But even this number were too many to 
partake of the saving air, the contest for which, and life 9 
continued until the morn, long implored, began to break; 
and, with the hope of relief, gave the few survivors a view 
of the dead. l The survivors then M the window, finding that 
their entreaties could not prevail on the guard to open the 
door, it occurred to Mr. Cooke, the secretary x>f Jtho 
council, that Mr. Holwell, Sf alive, might have more 
influence to obtain their relief; and two of the company 
undertaking the search, discovered him, having still some 
signs of life ; but when they brought him towards the win* 
dow, etery one refused to quit his place, excepting Captain 
Mills,* who with rare generosity offered to resign his ; on 
which the rest likewise agreed to make room. He had 
scarcely begun tft recover his senses, before an officer sent 
by the Nabob, came and inquired if the English chief sur- 
vived; and soon after, the same man returned with an or-

der to open the prison. The dead were so thronged, am} 
the survivors bad so little strength remaining, that they were 
employed near half an hoar in removing the bodies which lay 
againgt the door, before they could clear a passage to go out 
one at a time ; when of one hundred and forty six who went 
lit, no more than twenty three cqm* *ut alive, the gknrtlicst 
forms that ever were seen olive. The Nabob's troops be-* 
field them, and the hayock of death from which they had 
escaped, with indifference ; but did not prevent them fresn 
removing to a distance, and were immediately obliged, by 
the intolerable stench, to clear the dungeon, whilst others 
dug a ditch oa the outside of the fort, into which all the 
dead bodies wefe promiscuously thrown. 

* 4 Mr. Holwell, unable to stand, was, soon after 2 carried 
to the Nabob, who was so far from shewing any compassion 
for his condition, or remorse for the death of the other pri- 
f oners, that he only talked of the treasure which the English 
had buried ; and, threatening him witlj further injuries, if 
he persisted/in concealing them, ordered him to be kept a 
prisoner. The officers to whose charge he was delivered 
put him into fetters, together with Messrs. ' Court and 
Walcot, who were likewise supposed to know something of 
the treajure ; the rest of the survivors, amongst whom were 
Messrs. Cooke and Mills, were told they might go where 
they pleased ; but an English woman, the only one of her 
sex amongst the sufferers, was reserved for the seraglio of 
the General, Meer Jaffier, The dread of regaining any 
longer within the reach of such barbarians, determined most 
$f them tp remove immediately, as far as their strength 
enabled them, from the Fort, and most tended towards 
the ressels, which were still in sight; but when they 
readied Govindppre, in the southern part of too Com* 
panj's bounds, they were informed that guards were 
Stationed to prevent any persons from passing to the ves- 
sels ; on which most of them took shelter in deserted huts, 
where some of the. natives, who had served the English in 
different employments, came and administered to their im- 
mediate wants. Two or three, however, ventured, and got 
to the vessels before sun*set* Tbeir appearance, and the 
dreadful tale they bad to tell, were the severest of reproaches 
to those on board, who intent only en their own preserva- 
tion, had made no efforts to facilitate the escape of the rest 
of the garrison : never, perhaps, was such an opportunity 
of performing an heroic action so igoominiously neglected: 
for a single sloop, with fifteen brave men on board, mignr, 
in spite of aJH the efforts of the enemy, have come up, and, 
anchoring under the Fort, have carried away all who suffered 
in the dungeon.**

IN BfTNOAt. 

« Sir William Joaes was be*o in A. D. 1740, atfaistK*- 
-tfcer's residence In Wales, He was Son to the celebrated 
♦Mathematician, William Jones, who was ho*h the<.discfpte 

and friend of Jtfewton, under whose patronage be taught 
. Mathematics ia London, and had the honour of instructing 

the late Earl of Hardwicke in that science. 

" In 1762 Sir William Jones mad* the tour of Franc*, 

after which he resided for a few months in Paris, where be 

was introduced <at Court The French Monarch was mack 

pleased with his con?er«ation 9 and made many inquiries res- 

Vpectiogsome of the, provinces he bad travelled through: 

' to all of which he answered him in the .particular dialect of 

-each province. After Sir William withdrew, the 'King 

turned about <to one of his courtiers, saving, <?He<i*%a 

most extfaordioary man I He uoderstaiids the language of 

< my peoplo better than I do myself I* ' Yes, please-your'Ma- 

, jetty, implied the eourtier, he is, indeed, a <m o»e cccttaoridiae* 

*ty man than you are aware of, for he understands < almost 

every language in the world, but his ovmS^MeHduu'l' 

exclaimed the King, 4 then of waatcountry is.ae i» < ttefc, 

^please, your Majesty, a Welshman }' 

" la April MM Sir. WUliam Jones mar md^Afess^up by, 
daughter of Urn late Bishop of St. Asaph, and sister to. tie 
,iUveread W, D, Shipley, Dean of thaUliocese. 

u In the Same year Sir William Jones had ibeeir appoint* 
•«d one of the Judges of the' Supreme' Court of 'Jddioature 
in Bengal, and fcad embarked on board the Crocodile frigate. 

u Sir William Jones arrived at. Calcutta about the begin- 
ning of October ; . and, after having taken his seat on itjie 
' bench of the .Supreme Court, according to the usual forms,, 
- lie lost no time in making public his, plan for instituting a 
Society at Calcutta, for the purpose of inquiring into the 
history, arts, sciences. and literature of Asia, The* plan was 
embraced with eagerness by those gentlemen in Calcutta 
who were best .qualified to estimate its advantages, and to 
contribute to its support j. and being patronized by Mr, 
Hastings^ then Qovernor General, with that liberality, with 
Svhich he was woat to foster every literacy undertaking, 'the 
society was soon founded. The President's chair was first 
offered to Mr. Hastings • but on his declining it, Sir Willi* , 
am Jones was elected perpetual President ; and he delivered 
Jiis preliminary discourse in February 1784. 

H 2 



52 Cfje Complete  

<( sHe was now enabled to give fu!l scope to the excur- 
sions of his mind, and to 'gratify every wish of his heart* 
The wide and fruitful region of Asiatic learning was open 
before him, and the high and independent situation which 
he filled, gave hint a commanding prospect of it ; whilst he 
practised those laws which if was the pride of his life to che- 
rish and revere, and administered to hisfellow-cteatures the) 
pure maxims of justice and truth* 

" He had long ardently desired to study the Sanscrit 
language ; and this desire was considerably increased by the 
great progress which he found Mr. Wilktns had made in 
that ancient idiom, and still more by that gentleman's ele- 
gant translation of the £havat-Geet&. He therefore com- 
menced his studies in the Sanscrit without delay, and in the 
course of three years made himself So completely master of 
it, that the most enlightened professors of the doctrines of 
Brahma c confessed* says Lord Teignmouth, in his discourse 
on the death of his friend, * with pride, delight; and surprise, ' 
that his knowledge of their saered dialect was most criti- 
cally correct and profound. And the Pandits whe were in 
the habit of attending him, when I saw them after his death, 
at a public durbar, could neither suppress their tears for his 
loss, nor find words to express their admiration at the won- 
derful progress, which he had made in their sciences.* 

" The pertinacious and unwearied diligence with which 
. he applied to his studies, deserves to be recorded* He made 
* regular distribution and allotment of his time. He, rose 
at day-break, and studied till breakfast time j after which, 
during terms, he attended his duty in the Supreme Court, 
from whence he returned home at three o'clock, and studied 
till four; he then went to dinner, where he generally ha.d 
a select party of friends assembled, whom he entertained 
with the utmost gaiety till seven ; when he returned to his 
literary labours, and did not again quit them till mid. night. 
This was his constant habit, from which he seldom or never 
deviated. No man enjoyed more than he did the delights of 
friendly intercourse, and the festive pleasures of society; 
but all his pleasures were subservient to the paramount gra. 
tification he derived from the successful pursuit of the great 
end he had in view, that of serving his country, and instruct- 
ing mankind ; for of what Johnson says of Pope, may 
with strict truth be applied to him, ' that he was one of 
'those few whose labour is their pleasure.' 

< ( The most useful work in which he was ever engaged; 
and upon which, therefore, he was the most intent, he did 
not live to complete. This was a copious Pigest of Hindu 
and Mahommedan law, compiled from Sanscrit and Arabic 



0mmaM ftegfete^ 53 

Original^ ft plan of which he had presented to Government, 
who haa given it their moet liberal patronage, and strenuous 
support. The Pandits employed in the undertaking, had 
concluded their part of it, and 'the Moluvees bad nearly 
finished the portion which it was their business to suppl^ 
when the hand of death arrested the progress of the work, 
and deprived society of a Jones* 

" In April 1794, he was attacked with a bilious complaint, 
which, after a few weeks, proved so obstinate that it baffled 
the utmost skill of his physicians ; and on Sunday morning, 
the 27th of the same month, he died, agreeably to the uni«, 
form tenor of his life, a Patriot^ a Philosopher, and a 
Christian. 

" He wis buried the day following, with all Ae respect be- 
longing to his rank ; and, what is afore valuable, with all the 
honours due to his virtues.' 9

MR. CHARLES WESTON, 

The Son of the Recorder of the Major's Court, was bom 
in Calcutta in 1781, in a House then opposite to where the 
Tiretta Bazar now stands. He witnessed the great storm, 
and inundation of 1737, as it compelled his family to quit 
their House. The steeple of the Church he states to have 
fallen prostrate, a more probable position to ' hare* fell in 
than that stated in the Gentleman's Magazine of 1738-9* 
The Houses of the Europeans in Calcutta at that time were 
surrounded with spacious gardens, in which they stood 
central. This gentleman was the friend and associate of 
Mr. Holwell, and carried arms as a militia-man at the 
Old Fort, in 1756. He was the founder of his own opu- 
lence — surely Fortune never bestowed wealth better than on 
Charles Weston — a striking and existing example that 
chaste and refilled sentiments are not confined to complexion 
or climate. This truly honorable man resided at Chinsurah, 
amid a group of necessitous people, toothed and supported by 
his bounty. Those who have seen better days, on whom 
Fortune has ceased to smile, was comforted By Charles 
Weston : One hundred Gold Mohurs and upwards a month 
was regularly distributed to the indigent, from a box placed 
on his table, nor was there any Sircar to deduct' or intervene 
—all came from his own venerable hand :

REV. JOHN ZACHARIAH KIERNANDER, 

1 

Was born on the $lst of November, 1711, at Akstad, 
In Sweden, a place situated about four Swedish miles from 
the great City of Lindkoping, in the province of East Goth- 
land. He received the first rudiments of scholastic learning 
at the Gymnasium of Lindkoping, but completed his educa- 
tion at the University of Upsal. In his 24th year he became 
desirous of visiting foreign Universities, and on obtaining re- 
commendatory letters and a passport, by the influence of his 
friends in Stockholm, he took his passage through the Baltic 
to Stralsund, and from thence to Halle, in Saxony, where he 
arrived on the 17th of November, 1735. ' He was favourably 
received at the University of Halle, by Doctor Gothili 
August Franks, who immediately appointed him inspector 
of the Latin School, and afterward favoured him with other 
Benefices* Kiernander spent four years under the patro- 
nage of Dr. Fran&e, when, having satisfied his youthful 
curiosity, he began to think of returning to Sweden, but at 
this very crisia a circumstance occurred which took hint 
from his native Sweden for ever. 

The Society instituted at London for promoting Chris* 
Han knowledge wrote to Doctor Franks, requesting him to 
recommend to them a proper person to be sent out as a Mis- 
sionary to Cuddalore. Dr. Franks made the proposal to 
Kiernander, who, after some deliberation, accepted the 
-vocation ; on the 20th of November, 1739, he was ordained 
to the Ministry. 

Mr. Kiernander immediately set out for London, whero 
lie arrived on the 25th of December. He was lodged at Ken. 
sington, by his Majesty's Chaplain, the Rev. * Mr Zieqen- 
hagen, and on the 29th introduced by that gentleman to 
The Society, who received him with a public welcome. 

Mr. Kiernander left England in the Colchester, Indiana an, 
en the 20th of April, 1740, and arrived at Cuddalore on the 
28th of August, as colleague to the Rev. John Ernest 
Gueister, who was appointed to Madras in 1744, when the 
charge of Cuddalore devolved on Mr. Kiernander, who 
then had a congregation of 154 persons, viz. 99 Mala-

bars and 55 Portuguese, with 20 children in the Malabarfan 
school, and 28 in that of the Portuguese. Mr. Kiernander 
Was treated with the most polite attention by Admiral Bosca* 
•wen, and the Government of Fort St. David : that Govern- 
ment pnt him in possession of the Portuguese Roman Catho. 
}ic Church at Cuddalore, and at the same time expelled all Po- 

Sish priests from the Cpmpany's territories. On the 26th of 
fovember, 1749, the day after the receipt of the Governor's 
?rder, the English^ Tamilian, and Portuguese congregation 
assembled to hear divine service and a sermon in the three 
different languages, when the Church was solemnly dedicated, 
find called Christ Church. Such was the prosperous state 
pf the Mission committed to the charge of Mr. Kiernander, 

About this period Mr. Kiernander was married to Miss 
Wendeia Ft SCHEIE 

On the 4th of May, 1758, I/ieut. General Count Laixy 
took Cuddalore, by capitulation : Kiernander waited on 
that impetuous General, who told him no Protestant Mission, 
ery was then required at Cnddalore ; but that he would grant 
|tim a passport to go to Tranquebar : this was accepted, and 
on the $th of May Mr* Kiernander arrived at the Da- 
Dish Capital, stripped of all his property excepting a few ar«? 
ticks of apparel, < 

On the 2d of the following June, Fort St. David fell, 
fdso, by capitulation, to the arms of France ; in conse* 
quencs of which, as no. immediate prospect appeared of the 
restoration of the English to Cnddalore, Kiernander turn-, 
ed his eyes to Bengal, where the Battle of Plassey, on the 
preceding ye4r, had laid the foundation af the grandeur o{ 
Calcutta, 

On the Uth of September Mr. Kiernander left Tran* 
que bar, accommodated by the munificence of the Danes, the 
friends of the True, Religion : on the 99th of the same month 
fce arrived in Calcutta, and declared his intentions to the 
Government of establishing a Missjon there. Governor 
Cute, Mr. Watts, aqd the other gentlemen of Council, 
approved of and favoured his propositions. 

Mr. Kiernander, on the 4th of November, 1758, was. 
blessed with a Son : the reader may judge what a reception 
Mr. Kiernander had in Calcutta, when he is told Colonel 
j&oBERT Clive, Mrs. Margaret Clive, Mr. William; 
Watts, and Mrs. Frances Watts stood Sponsors for the 
Child : the infant was named Robert Willi ah in honour 
#f hi 8 high Sponsors. 

Mr. Kiernander opened the Mission School at Calcutta, 
on the 1st of Dec. 1758 : on the 31st of Dec. of the follow., 
ing year, 175 Children had been received by him, 37 of 
^hich number he had provided for. Mr. Kiernander, at 



ittmnimmtal Etgfetet. M t 

this time occasionally preached at Serampore, where th* 
Danes, then in their infant settlement, had no Chaplain* 

Mr. Kiernander was very graciously received in CkU 
cutta by the Rev. Henry Butler and the Her* John Cape* 
Chaplains at the settlement in the years 1758-9-6Q and 1 ? 
they procured him large subscriptions for carrying on tbe> 
pious work he was engaged in, and assisted in his peculiar 
offices as a Minister of the Gospel; 

Mr. Kiernander, on the 9th of May, 176U lost hut 
Lady. On the succeeding year, the 10th day of February* 
1762, witnessed his union with Mrs. Anne Wolley. 

In the year 1767 Mr. Kiernander was obliged to re- 
move from the house lent him by the Company for the us* 
of his Church and School : he in consequence resofredto pur* 
chase ground and build a Church at his own expense ; in 
May this year, the 27th of his mission, he laid the foun* 
dation of the present Mission Church. 

About this period the Court of the Emperor Shah AutuH 
requested from Mr. Kiernander some eopies of the Psalter: 
and New Testament, in the Arabie language ; he complied* 
and had the satisfaction to hear they were so well received 
by his Majesty's Mullahs, that he transmitted to Allahabad* 
where the Court then was held, all the Arabic Psalters and 
Testaments in his possession* 

As Mr. Kiernander was advancing in years, he took twd 
associates to assist him : they were Romish priests, who, on 
their arrival at Calcutta, made a public abjuration from the 
errors of Popery, the Rev. Mr. Bento ds Silvestre and 
the Rev. Manuel Joze de Costa. These gentlemen drew 
on themselves the censure of the conclave of Goa, and a Ro- 
mish priest was sent from thence to Calcutta to excommuni- 
cate them ; but his vain threats did not in the smallest degree 
affect the Protestant Mission at Calcutta. 
. The Mission Church would have been completed early in 
1770, had not the progress been stopped by the death of the 
architect ;* the persevering Kiernander, by his own mire* 
mitting diligence, compensated in part for this misfortune : 
on the 23d of Dec. the Sacred Edifice was consecrated and 
named Beth-Tephillah, which in the Hebrew language 
signifies The House or Prayer. The building cost the 
founder above 60,000 sicca rupees, 1,81* rupess only of 
which sum had been presented in benefactions. Thus, after 
a lapse of fourteen years, Calcutta once more beheld an £«- 
glish Church— completed at the expense of a stranger! 

As a piece of architecture, Beth-Tefhii*lah cannot be 
compared to- the Old Church of St. John, destroyed by the 

• Mr. Martin floutant de Mcvell, a Danish Architect.

barbarians in 1756. One was founded by an individual*-* 
the other by the united charity of opulent merchants, in days 
when gold was plenty, labour cheap, and not one indigent 
European in all Calcutta!— Existing authorities testify the 
perfect composition of that temple, to which the Governor 
on every Sunday walked in solemn procession, attended by 
all the civil servants, and all the military off duty. We learn 
from a tradition handed down to us by the famous Lady 
Russell, that the steeple of St. John's was very lofty and 
uncommonly magnificent, and constituted the' chief public 
ornament of the settlement before the calamity of 1737. 

Mr. Kiernander, wishing to make the Mission Church. 
wfi lasting as possible, constructed it of the best materials ; 
tihey who suppose that Captain Griffin largely contributed 
to the benefit of the Mission, are misinformed ; I have seen 
tiie will and papers of Capt. Griffin, aud can assert that 
•f the residuary legacy left to the Mission not one cash ever 
Was realized. 

Mr. Kiernander lost his second Lady in June, 1773, after 
m continued sickness of six months. She left her jewels for 
the benefit of Beth.Tephillah ; with the amount produce 
Mr. Kiernander founded a Mission School on his own 
ground, in the rear of the Church, capable of holding 250 
Children. It was founded on the 7th of July, 1773, and 
completed on the 14th of March, 1774. About this period 
the Rev. Mr. Diemar arrived to assist Jhe Mission. 

In the year 1778 Mr. Kiernander began to experience 
the frailties and infirmities of age. His sight failed him, and 
in 1782 he was obliged to submit to. the painful operation of 
having his eyes couched ; that operation succeeded so well 
that he was soon after able to write to The Society to con- 
gratulate them '* on his happiness in once more being 
enabled to see the prosperity of the Mission :" Lad/ 
Coote, when at Calcutta, attended and received the Sacra- 
ment at the Mission Church. " This good example," says 
the Missionary, " is attended with a very happy influence, 
and gives great encouragement to the Congregation." 

In the year 1783 the Rev. Mr. Westrow Hulse, Chap* 
lain to the late Sir Eyre Coote, on his return to Europe, 
made the Mission a present of 500 sicca rupees ; Mr. 
Kiernander himself gave 1000 rupees, and his Son, Mr. ' 
Robert William Kiernander, gave 3000 rupees, the 
yearly interest of which was to be applied to the support of 
the Mission. Mr. Diemar this season returned to Europe* 

Here we must revert the scene and behold more unpleas- 
ing prospects. In the* year 1786 a cloud of adversity was 
gathering over the hoary head of Kiernander ! He fore- 
saw the approaching calamity, and wrote to The Society 



^Monumental igeg&tm M 

Kl England, expressing a wish of going to London with his 
Son, and earnestly soliciting them to send out another Mis* 
sionary, " lest his congregation should be forsaken and hit 
Church shut up." This venerable Patriarch was now in the) 
76th year of his age and the 47th of his mission, an age, at 
which, in any climate, the debilitated frame mast feel se-i 
▼erely the reverse of fortune : but how unspeakably severe 
tnust it be felt by One, who for a period equal to the ordi- 
nary Hfe of man, had been led to the gentle ease of India I 
The hovering cloud burst in 1787, and the ruin of all hi* 
fortunes followed — the seal of the Sheriff of Calcutta was 
flapped even on Beth-Tephillah ! 

One person immediately stepped forward who restored 
the Church to religion* He paid for it the sum it was ap- 
praised at — ten thousand rupees /—Yes ! one person step- 
ped forward aud saved the Temple, where the hymns of 
truth had been chaunted for seventeen years, from being 
weekly profaned by the hum*drum sing-song of an aucf 
iioueer ! 

The property of the Church; school, and bufying-groundj 
was transferred on the last day of October, 1787, to three 
trustees, the Rev. Mr. Brown, Mr. William Chambers, 
and the purchaser, Mr. Charles Grant; thenceforward 
it ceased to be the property of an individual. 

Since the transfer of the Church. The Society hare not 
been fortunate iu their selection of Missionaries, and the 
duty for upwards of twenty years had devolved chiefly oa 
the Rev. Mr* Brown, who, with such other Chaplains 
as have been attached to the Presidency, have rendered 
their voluntary services to the Mission. 

That Mr. Kiernand&r at one period of his life became 
very suddenly opulent is notorious— that he as suddenly 
was reduced to indigence is equally notorious. These cir~ 
cumstances'at the time could not be accounted for, and must 
now remain a mystery which never will be expounded. His 
zeal was great, and latterly he viewed things^ through the 
mists of age. He had frailties in common with man, but 
let the memory of them perish. — You, who wish to plant 
rue at his tomb, ask that faithful monitor, your own heart; 
if you have lived better ! 

The Rev. John Zachariah KiernInder died in Cali 
cutta, at the advanced age of eighty-eight, after a residence 
in India nearly of sixty years: his remains were entombed 
in the Sepulchre of his second lady 5 at the ground Which 
still bears his name;

- The Portuguese under Vasco da Garaa, discover**! tfa» 
passage to India bf the Cape of Good Hope in 1497. Go* 
vras captured, and Fort Eqtailuel founded by Albuquerque* 
in 1510 : from thenceforward to the present, day, this 
Island has been considered as the capital of the Portuguese* 
conquests, and the seat of the Primate and Metropolitan 
of til Asia. 

Goa, the first city in which any European power effected 
a settlement, our contemporaries hare been compelled to so* 
licit even the means of- existence from the Schismatic descen- 
dants of J£u rope : during the famine in 1793, a Carmelite 
monk of the Monastery of Nossa Senhora de Carpto, was 
soliciting alms in the streets of Calcutta for the support of - 
his Convent : he came with a memorial sigoed by the Heads 
of his Orders. In Goa, as in all other places where a Pa- 
pal Government exists, poverty is to be seen linked with 
wretchedness. Yet the Portuguese invariably have made 
choice of the finest situations .wherever, they have fixed their 
abode— as a proof, Goa presents one of the most romantic 
scenes from the sea, pfany on the Malabar Coast. The 
Fort of Alguaida forms one side of the entrance to the har- 
bour, and the Monastery of Nossa Senhora de Car mo situ- , 
ated on an high point of land, and whose beautiful appear- 
ance invites to other sentiments, than those of horrid soli* 
tude, and still more horrid celibacy . 

The Portuguese first entered Bengal, as military adren* 
tnrers in the service of the King of Gour, about the yea* 
1 538, the last year of the Government of Nuna de Cunha, 
the tenth Viceroy of India. 

In the year 1599 the Portuguese built a Fort at HougTiiy, 
in the place now called Gotegkat. In the same year the 
Missionaries of the Order of St. Augustine founded the 
Convent of Banael, the Cathedral Church of St. Paul, and 
the Church of Miseracordta 9 to which was attached a 
Recolhimento for the protection of ladies: the foundation 
of these sacred buildings are to be seen at this day. The 
Convent of Bandel was demolished in 1640, and rebuilt b/ : ,r x 
John Gomes de Soto. *'*'&> 

In 1632 the Portuguese committed excesses on the Impe- ' '^;i» 
rial Mahal at Houghly : the Emperor demanded satisfaction, '* 

which was denied him. The iucensed Monarch immediately 
ordered a powerful army, commanded' by twenty-two 
Omrafes, to extirpate the Portuguese. Michael Itodrigues

and his garrison bravely opposed, and the Moslems would 
bare besieged in vajn, had not a Portuguese Mestle, Martta 
Pereira de Afelho, betrayed the fortress by pointing outm 
track through which the' enemy entered, and destroyed ail 
before them with fire and sword. Michael Rodrigues 
and 15,000 Christian captives were -dragged to the. Impe. 
ml residence at Agra t of the fire Augustine Friars brought 
to Agra, fonr urere immediately pat to death ; the fifth, the 
Her. Fre John Da Cruz, was resorted for peculiar and ex* 
emplary punishment. These events occurred in 1 633. 

When the day of punishment a rrived, the Emperor order- 
ed him to be cast in an area to a furious elephant. The ele* 
phaot, at sight of the friar, lost his natire ferocity and gent- 
ly caressed him with his proboscis. The astonished and 
disappointed Emperor determined on his pardon, and order,* 
hog him to be .brought to the imperial presence, granted him 
three days to reflect on any request he had to make, which 
should be complied with. The prudent Da Cruz did not 
require so much time to deliberate, hut instantly determined, 
and solicited his own liberty, with permission to reconduct 
the surviving Christian cap tires tor Bengal. I present the 
story to the reader, as I find it in the archives of BandeL* 

It is certain the Portuguese were again received into fa- 
vour, as the Emperor presented them with an imperial dona-w 
tion of 777 biggas of land, whfch they possess this* day under, 
the name of Bandeloj Hough/, otherwise Balaguhr. 

By this imperial grant, the Portuguese were permitted to> 
found Churches, and the friars were exempted from the au- 
thority of the Soubahdars, Fouzdars, and other officers oC 
state. Within the limits of their 777 biggas, they were allow-. 
ed to exercise magisterial power, with regard to the Chris* 
tians, but were denied that of life ami death. They were at 
the same time exempted from all tribute and tolls.

Job Charnock, the father of Calcutta* settled there in 
the year 1689 : a few Portuguese followed him to the new 
settlement, where, to increase population and ci? Hization, 
the English Gorernmerjt allotted them ground for the ex- 
ercise of divine worship, on which the Friars of the Order 
of St. Augustine erected a temporary Chapel of mats and 
straw, and application was made to the Prior of Bandel 
for a Priest to officiate therein : the Portuguese congrega- 
tion quickly increased, and befor\» the year 1700 a brick 
Chapel was erected in Calcutta at the expense of Mrs. Mar* 
garet Tench : this Chapel was- much enlarged in the year 
1720 by Mrs. Sebastiana Shaw, during the Yicarship and un- 
der the direction of the Rer. Fre Francisco Pa Asnmpcao. 
The tombstones of those two pious benefactresses were 
placed, in a conspicuous place, aloft> in the walk of the Ofd 
* Chapel, and now lie, one at each side of the altar, in the 
present Church of The Virgin Mary of Rosary. 

The records of the old Chapel were destroyed during the 
troubles of 1756. 

When the English were re-established in Calcutta, the 
Provincial of Goa assumed to himself the power of appointing 
Vicars to Calcutta, who had the management of the funds 
of the Church. The Portuguese saw reasons that their' 
Vestry and Wardens should hare the management of the 
funds : on a remonstrance to the Bishop of Meliapore, that 
dignitary was pleased to comply with their request, and 
6ince the year 1773 the Church-wardens hare been the trus- 
tees of the Public. 

In 1777 the Bishop of Meliapore thought proper to declare 
Luis D'Costa, Thomas Griffith, Pascal da Saa, and 
Francis Pereira, perpetual Wardens, in consequence of 
considerable legacies left to the Church by Mrs. Garret, to 
"whose estate Mr. Griffith, one of the' Wardens, was exe- 
cutor. The Wardens heretofore were chosen by regular and 
annual elections ; and the inhabitants now seeing their right 
of election infringed, opposed and elected other Wardens* 
This brought on a contest, which was decided by the Su- 
preme Court in favour of the inhabitants in 1783. The suit 
cost them 40,000 rupees. 

In the year 1706 the Portuguese determined to threw 1 
down their old Church, and build a more spacious one in 
the modern style. Two opulent brothers* from Bombay, 
Mr* Joseph Barretto and *Mr. Luis Barretto, stepped for- 
ward on the occasion and shewed the same* zeal as Gomes 
de Soto, Mrs. Tench, and Mrs. Shaw, did of old. The 
first stone of the New Church was laid on the 12th day of 

* Pied at Calcutta oa the 3d September! 1606.

March 1707, and on the 27th of Nor. 1799, it was cense* 
crated aud dedicated to The Virgin Mary °f ftosary. The 
architect was TJbomas Syars' Driver, who died before tlja 
completion of the building. 

The family of Barretto came very early to Asia. Capt. 
Manuel Tellez Barretto came in 1 505, \n the fleet with Ad- 
miral Lopez Suarez. Francis J3arretto left the Tagus with 
three sail in 1547, and died Governor of Goa rtt 1558. He 

was the nineteenth Governor of the Portuguese India : a 

brave and generous man ; whose remains were received at 
Lisbon with extraordinary honors, by £ing Sebastian. An- 
thony Monez Barretto, who died in 1576, was the twenty- 
sixth Governor of India. Histoty records a dignitary of 
the name John Nunnez Barretto, who was appointed 
Patriarch of Ethiopia, and the second in succession, but He 
died in Goa about the middle of the sixteenth century pre- 
paratory to his departure for Ethiopia. — —Such were the 
Asian heads of this high,' favoured, and munificent family, 
that we now see founding and endowing Churches in Bengal. 

The Church of The Virgin, Mary of Rosary cost 90,000 
rupees in buildings 30,000 of which arose from the revenues 
of the Church, the remaining 60,000 accumulated by sub* 
scription. When the subscription closed, all deficiencies 
■were made up by the Barretto family. 

The close of the century, as well as the commencement of 
it, was distinguished for producing two pious ladies, who 
were sincere benefactresses to the Roman- Catholic Church 
of Calcutta, Mrs. Rita Griffith and Mrs. Philadelphia 
BonfiekL 

The present Portuguese cajl their Church The Church of • 
the Poor, and declared it such in their addresses to the 
Bishop of St. Thomas, aud that no supremacy in the world 
can have any claim on it. 

The Portuguese Burial-ground at Boita Konnah is the 
gift of Mr. Joseph Barretto, who purchased it in 1785 for 
8000 rupees. 

The Roman Catholic Church at Serampore was built under 
the auspices of the Barretto family : it cost 14,000 rupees, 
600 of which were contributed by the Honourable Colonel 
Bie, the Danish Governor of that settlement. The Church 
was consecrated in 1783, and dedicated to Madre de Deos. 

At Sooksagura neat domestic Chapel was built in I7fc9 
by th*» Barretto family, which cost 9000 rupees. It wa9 
consecratr d in October 1789, aud dedicated to The Virgin 
Mary of ' armou '

It will gratify every admirer of benevolence, and -well- 
wisher of the cause of humanity, to learn, that the late 
Joap Bakretto, Esq.. who was cut off in the prime of his 
youth, gave, previously to bis death, a munificent proof of 
what might have been expected from him, had he been spar- 
ed to his friends and the cpmmcmity. In his Will he left 
five lacks of rupees to be distributed for the benefit of reli- 
gious and charitable institutions. Of the interest raised on 
this sum, 3000 rupees per annum are bestowed on that ad-

per annum on the Portuguese Church ; 4700 per annum on 
the Protestant Churches in Calcutta; 1400. par annum on 
the Charity School ; 1400 on the Portuguese poor ; and

In the prosperity of the Mogul Empire, the Armenians 
carried on a traffic by land with India, which considerably 
increased soon after Shah Abbas the first deprived them of 
iheir own Prince, and redeemed them from Turkish slavery* 
The Persian Monarch, by address and the fortune of bis. 
arms, gradually drew the Armenians from Ararat, or Old 
Julfa, to the suburbs of Ispahan, consigned them to the pro. 
tection of the Queen mother, and bestowed on them the site 
of that city known this-day to the Armenians by the name 
of new Julfa. Shah Abbas died, in 1629, after a riegn of 
fifty years over Khorasan, and above forty .two over all 
Persia. The Monarch, before bis decease, had the satisfac- 
tion to see that the Armenians, by their unwearied mercan- 
tile industry, increased the glory of his reign and the splen* 
dour of Ispahan. « 

Above two hundred years ago the Armenians first entered 
the Persian Gulph and carried on a trade from Surat to Per- 
sia, and from Persia to Venice, in consequence of which the 
manufacturers of India are this day known in Venice by the 
name of Persiana. In process of time more bold adven- 
turers, allured by the hope of gain, left the Persian terri- 
tories by the way of Gombroon, and connected themselves 
with the English on the Peninsula of India. The first con- 
spicuous Armenian who couferred with the English on Poli- 
tical subjects was Coja Phanoos Kalender, a merchant of 
eminency, and an inhabitant of Ispahan : he, on the behalf of 
the Armenian nation, received from the English Company 
considerable encouragement and several distinct privileges 
for himself. The following extract I present to the reader 
a* immediately connected with my designs : 

" Whenever forty or more of the Armenian nation shall become 
inhabitants in any of the garrisons, cities or towns belonging to the 
Company in the East-Indies, the said Armenians shall not only have 
and enjoy the free use and eiercise of their religion, but there shall 
be also allotted to theoi.9 parcel of ground, to erect a Church thereon 
for the Worship and service of God in their own way. And that we 
will also, at our own charge, cause a convenient Church to be built of 
timber, which afterwards the said Armenians may alter and build 
with stone, or other solid materials, to their own good liking. And 
the said Governor and Company wilt also allow fifty pounds per 
annum during the space of seven years", for the maintenance of such, 
priest, or minister, as they shall cbuse to officiate therein." Given, 
under the Company's larger Seal, &c. &c. June 22d, 1688. 

The Armenians gradually came from Guzerat and Surat, 
to Benares and Behar ; a.bout one hundred and fifjy years 
ago they formed a settlement at Sydabad in consequence 



iflomimmtal iaefffefer. 187 

of a Phirmaund from the Mogul : when the Dutch settled 
at Chinsurah in 1625, they were followed by the Armeni- 
ans ; the Armenian Chiefs who joioed the Dutch were of the 
Markar family from Shosh — — a family, which, if we are 
to believe the yet-speaking marbles, were " favoured by 
Kings and Viceroys*'* St. John's Church at Chinsurah 
was founded by this family in 1695, and is the oldest Church 
the Armenians have in Bengal. 

On the establishment pf Calcutta, 1689, the Armenians, 
as well as the Portuguese, accepted the invitations of Char- 
nock, and placed themselves under the protection of his Go- 
vernment : Kenanentch Phanoos was permitted to pur- 
chase the ground where the Church now jtands, and which 
was used a* their burying-ground until the year 1724, when, 
the present Church was founded by national contribution 
-under the auspices of the Aga Nazar : the steeple was added 
by the Huzoormall family in 1734: the architect was' 
Cavond, an Armenian from Persia. In the year 1763 the 
Churcji was repaired and embellished by the deceased Agtt 
Petruse Aratoon: in 1790 it was again considerably im- 
proved t>y the late highly respectable Aga Chackick 
ArackeJ, who presented the clock, and built houses for the 
clergy. The Church is called St. Nazareth's Chjirch, in 
honour of the founder. Previous to the year 1724 the 
Armenians perforated divine seryice in a temporary Chapel 
about one hundred yards to the south of St. Nazareth's 
Church* 

The connection of the Armenians with the English re- 
dounds to the national honour of both parties, as we see in, 
the grant made to Phanoos Kalender. The Marker family 
enjoyed the smiles of Kings and of their Lieutenants* 
Coja Serhaud was conjoined with Mr. Surman and Mr* 
Stephenson in the English embassy to the Imperial Court of 
Delhi in 1715. Our contemporaries have seen the great; 
grandson of Phanoos Kalender, the late Aga Chackick 
Arackel, distinguished by /the Honourable, Company, who, 
transmitted to him a miniature of the King of England. 

Under the Mogul Government the Armenians had access 
to public oJSpes, as many of thorn were very opulent mer- 
chants highly respected by the Omrahs, among whom they 
had such considerable influence, that the Greeks were in-* 
duced to solicit their patronage, under which theyjwere first 
introduced into Calcutta, and both people, until very lately, 
went under the general appellation of Urmannee. The 
Greeks, for their patronage, paid to the Armenian Church 
one Arcot rupee for every bale of merchandise they receive^ 
from Dacca, Sylhet, Bandana, Assam, Patna ; and M.oqjx 
shedabajd.

Commerce allured the Q reeks, as well as the Armenian?, 
to an association with the English in India, 

The first emiuent Grecian, who settled in Calcutta was 
Hadjee Alexios Argyree,* a attire of Philippopolis : ha 
came to Bengal in 1750. 

Mr. Philip da Crua has stated, that he accompanied 
Alextos Argyree in a voyage from Calcutta for Mocka and 
Judda at t|ke close of the year 1770, in the ship Alexander. 
Argyree went as interpreter in the Arabic language to Cap- 
tain Thornhiil, who commanded the vessel. On the 99th of 
Dec. they met with a severe gale, in which the vessel was dis- 
masted, ^.t the moment of extreme danger, when all expec- 
ted the vessel mast have fqundered, Argyree made a solemn 
tow to heaven, that if they survived the threatening perils he 
would found a Church in Calcutta for the Grecian congre- .„ 
gation. When the gale abated they put in and refitted at 
Madras, and in February 1771 proceeded to Mocka, where 
they took in a cargo of cpffee for Pondicherry : as the sea- 
son was too far advanced for the vessel to proceed to Judda,* 
Captain Thornhiil despatched Argyree overland to Cairo to\ 
procure a phjnnaund from the Beys for liberty for the Eng- 
lish to trade to Suez : Agyree returned successful, and at 
the commencement of the Government of Mr. Hastings re- 
ceived a favourable answer to a petition he presented for 
permission to establish a Greek Church in Calcutta. 

The Greek Church in Calcutta consequently dates its ex- 
istence from the year 1772, but Divine Service had been oc- 
casionally performed there by the few Greeks in the Settle- 
ment since the year 1769. 

By the sanction of the Patriarch of Constantinople, Ar- 
gyree brought a Minister from Alexandria, and under the 
auspices of the munificent Hastings, purchased, with the as- 
sistance of the Greeks, a small house in the alley contiguous 
to 9 and in the rear of, the steeple of the present Portuguese 
Church of the Virgin Mary of Rosary, where Divine Ser* 
Tice was performed for the spiritual benefit of the Greeks in 
Calcutta. Death put a period to the farther pious intenti- 
ons of Argyree. He died in Calcutta on the 5th of August 

* He made a pilgrimage to Jerusalem, and the Greeks who do so 
acquire the appellation of Hadjee as well as the Mohommedans who 
go to Mecca. The Armenians term tbetn Mukdassre. Hadjee is a 
Turkish word, and consequently not to be found in the Greek Lexicon.

1777. As ke was the father, and while lWiog the chief sup* 
porter, of the Greek Church in Bengal. 

The foundation of the present Greek Church was laid in 
June 1780, three years after the death of Argyfee. It 
was consecrated on the 6th of August 1781, and dedicated 
to The Transfiguration of aur Blessed Redeemer en 
Mount Thabor. 

The- estate of the late Argyree,* and his suryiTing fami- 
ly, contributed to the purchase of the ground and the erec- 
tion of the building, which cost, together, about thirty 
thousand Rupees ; * but the principal part of this sum 
arose from Toluntary contributions on the solicitation of 
Mr. Parthenio, a natire of Corfew, who settled in Bengal 
in 1775. This gentleman attracted the notice of Mr. Has- 
tings, who, with tl\at liberality and condescension for which, 
he was ever distinguished, placed his name at the head of the 
Subscription for two thousand rupees, and thus set an ex. 
ample to the English to encourage the pious intentions of the 
Greeks. The English Gentlemen contributed largely, and 
the few poor Greeks trading to Bengal added each their; 
mite to the aggregate. The Qreel^ Church is in facta, 
Sacellum. 

The Greek Society at Calcutta is called among the bre-. 
thren " The Orthodox Jfrotherhood of the Greeks in, 
jCalcntta" There was a fraternal agreement passed among 
the Greeks of Calcutta, for the purpose of directing the 
temporal affairs of their Church, by which tl>ey have re- 
solved that it is the property of themselves and their sue. 
cessors, so long as any of the same nation and religion 
remain in Calcutta. The Greeks declare the King of Eng- 
land the protector of their Temple, and daily implore the 
Almighty for his prosperity at the foot of their altar. 

t Argyree died worth only 80,000 Rupees, 20,000 of which actu<v 
ally went to pay his debts in Constantinople.

tlEVTENANT GENERAL IN THE ARMY, ASD COMMAND^* 
IN CHIEF OF THE BRITISH FORCES IN INDIA* 

Sir Eyre Coote embarked last for India, in 17fr8* Ex*» 
elusive of the most brilliant actions performed by him in- the 
year 1760-1, his country naturally resorted to their deplort 
nble, and every thing, but finally lost situation, on the 
Coast of Cdrotnandelj in the yealr 1780 ; when Sir Eyre 
Coote pushed through the North East Monsodn from Ben- 
gal, with only bOO European* troops, to the relief of Madras, 
'rescuing this desponding, falling, Presidency, and effecting, 
%j his presence and exertions, a fortunate change and extri- 
cation, from the seemingly impossible difficulties and dan* 
gers, then surrounding our invaluable Eastern possessions* 

Compare but the adverse circumstances attending the) 
disastrous terra 6? September, 1^80, with the two ensuing 
successful campaigns of 1781, and up to September, 1782, 
when Sir Eyre Coote was necessitated, by a* severe fatal 
indisposition, to quit the Coromandel field ; and the recot- 
lection of facts alone*, which prevailed at the periods alluded 
to, decide the high obligation Britain is under to him. 

The world in general feel not the real intrinsick worth 
of illustrious Characters, or valuable Possessions, till they 
are no mtfre, or till we are in danger of losing them. Mo- 
dern Eastern anecdotes and history most pointedly exem- 
plify the truth of this assertion. Now the value of our 
.Eastern possessions begin to be, by degrees, partially un- 
derstood : it will be remembered by the British empire, that 
the superior abilities, personal successful exertions zeal of 
service, established and acknowledged military character, of 
the late Sir Eyre Coote, in, the hour of peril and extreme 
danger to the state, checked the rapid torrent of Invasion » 
restored firmness, love of enterprise to our army, and uni* 
formly led to victory, a very limitted number of infantry 
alone under his own immediate command, though opposed to 
the most formidable and numerous enemies, ever encounter- 
ed by us in Asia ; and that at the General's decease, the 
British Military Character in India, was happily recovered 
to his Country, respected and dreaded by their enemies* „

Sir Eyre Coote died at Madras, and bis remains wefi 
interred under the Gallery of St. Mary's Church, Fort St. 
George, with every mark of hono^and respect. 

A whole length PortaU of this gallant General, %$ placed 
in the hall of the Madras Exchange. 

The monument to the memory of Sir Eyre Coote, erected 
by the East India Company, in testimony of their esteem for 
the character of this gallant Officer, h placed in Westmin- 
jter-Abbey. 

The work is at once an honour fo great military merit, 
and to the ingenious artist, Banks, whose talents have so ably 
recorded it. 

The monument consists of two figures as large as life ; 
one is a Mahratta or Hindoo Captive, weeping by .the side 
of a trophy of Persian -armoury representing a province sub- 
dued : he is holding an inverted cornucopia, the contents of 
which are falling into the shield erf Britannia* 

The other figure is Victory, who, having erected the tro- 
phy, is decorating it with the portrait of Sir Eyre Coote, 
which she is hanging oo a palm tree that rises behind the 
Armour. ... 

On the sarcophagus is an elepnant, to mark the scene of 
action. 

The whole is intended to represent a province of the 
East, preserved to his country by the victories of the heroic 
Coote. It is placed near the entrance of the North door,, 
and is twelve feet wide, and twenty-six high. 

On the Sarcophagus is the following Inscription : 

This Monument

THE REVEREND RICHARD HALL KERR, D. Q, 

t 

SENIOR CHAPLAIN OF fORT ST. QSOBGE, AND SUPERIN^ 
TENDENT OF THE MILITARY MALE ORPHAN ASYLUM. 

To form a correct judgment of the characters of men, we 
must attend ratter to their private than to their public coa- 
duct. " It is at home," as a profound Observer and the 
greatest Moralist of the age had remarked, " that every man 
" must be known, by those who would make a just estimate 
<c either of his virtue or felicity.'* They who have not be* 
held Dr. Kerr in the domestic circle— in the bosom of hit 
family — can hardly do justice to the ftttiable qualities of his 
heart, to his beneficence ancl philanthropy, to his gentle and 
conciliating behaviour, to the ardour of his friendship, 
and to his instructive arid varied conversation* In the seve- 
ral relations of social life, as a husband, a father, a friend, 
and a master, His conduct was in the highest degree exempla- 
ry. ' ."' •"-•••  -. 

Animated with the spirit of genuine piety and expansive 
benevolence— endowed by nature with comprehensive and 
energetic powers of understanding — and enriched by educa- 
tion with the embellishments of a highly cultivated mind ; he 
exerted those faculties, with a fervent zeal, and an ardent 
devotion, for the service of that God in whose sanctuary he 
was a sincere and faithful minister, — for the interests of mo- 
rality, — the instruction of his fellow-creatures,— and for 
the benefit of that Charity of which he was the immediate 
Superintendent — the eminent benefactor $nd frietyi. 

Among the more conspicuous instances of this good man's 
beneficence, is to be noticed the Chapel in the Black Town,' 
in which his reliques are novv enshrined — an edifice pro- 
jected by himself; erected by subscriptions, raised through 
his individual sol icitations-^-consec rated by him under 
authority procured from the Archbishop of Canterbury— 
and in which he £ratuitpusly administered divine service, for 
the instruction of the community in that vicinity, so long; 
as his health permitted, in addition to his functions 1 at St. 
Mary's Church, 

The signal services rendered by him to the Male Orphan 
Asylum, which had been of late years principally supported 
by funds, provided within the seminary, by means of the 
Press establishments instituted by Dr^ Kerr ; a^ well as the 
important advantages, which have accrued to the Honorable 
Compaq, from the same source • and the t hristian chanty 
manifested by the publication of his fieligiqus Tracts, which 
combined the advantages of dibseminat\ng tne doctrines of 
Christianity, and greatly cauduced to the utility of tko- 
Orphan Asylum. x '

i *. 



to promoting the cause of the religion which he professed 
and the benefit of the institution which he superintended, 
he was animated with an ardor, activity and perseverance, 
which nothing could abate but the attainment of the object* 

Hence, — by some;— with whose private interests, pre* 
judices or pa ssiotff, hi! public duties and sacred functions 
had to contend, he has been considered sometimes to have 
exceeded the serene and sober spirit of the evangelical cha- 
racter : but an intimate knowledge of this worthy divine, 
will ever enable the public correctly to discern his motives 
and appreciate his merits ; io truth, no trait of his conduct, 
reflects on his character more lustre and honor, than/ this 
which some have ventured to arraign. 

On Sunday the 24th April, a funeral discourse was deliver* 
ed in St. Mary's Church, by the Reverend Eiward Yaughan, 
accompanied with psalms^ hymns, and lessons adapted to 
this melancholy solemnity, and as a further mark of the pub- 
lic respect for his memdry, the crimson hangings of the 
pulpit, altar, &'c. &c. were changed, on that day, for the 
•able drapery of mourning. 

The following inscription is taken from a monument 
erected to his memory in the Chapel, which he had conse- 
crated, in the Black Town :

Bombay 



GOVERNOR JONATHAN DUNCAN, 

'OF THE fSMiJDSNCr OP MQMBAY AND ITS DEPENDENCIES, 

Mir. Duncan- died at Bombay early on the morning of 
the 11th of August, 1811, after having presided over that 
Settlement for nearly sixteen years. 

Mr. Duncan was appointed a Writer of the Bengal 
Establishment, and arrived in India in the year 1772, at the 
age of seventeen.-~The disadvantages of quitting his Na- 
tive Country at so early a period, were soon surmounted 
by the peculiar aptitude of his mind, and an ardent thirst 
after kaowledge ; and it was not long before he displayed, 
among his other acquirements, that acquaintance with the 
Languages, the Laws and the Manners of the Natives of 
India, for which he became so eminently distinguished. 

Qualifications so conspicuous did not long remain' unno- 
ticed nor unrewarded ; the discrimination of his' Superiors 
loon called into active and honorable employment, abilities 
which seemed to have been matured exclusively for the pub- 
lic advantage ; and which secured for him the high opinion, 
and unbounded confidence, of the great and iliustrious 
Characters who successively filled the dignified Office of 
•Governor General of British India, during his residence 
under the Presidency of Fort William* 

These recommendations to preference and advancement 
led to the appoiutment of Mr. Duncan, to the Government 
of the Province of Benares in the year 1786, at a period of 
no common difficulty ; — the uninterrupted success and the 
unsullied integrity of his administration fully established 
the wisdom of the selection, and proved the high and just 
estimation in which his talents and his virtues were held ; 
the mildness and benevolence with which his authority was 
exercised in that celebrated City, and its extensive and very 
populous territories, still live in the remembrance of a grate- 
ful people ; and will ever be cherished with an ardour of 
affection and veneration for his worth and character; which 
a firm, but impartial exercise of justice, could alone have 
inspired. 

Among the many blessings which flowed from his admini- 
stration at Benares, the Reform which he effected in the bar- 
barous and cruel practice of Female Infanticide, among the 

D d

Chieftain* in the Eastern part of the Company's Possession* 
in that Province, as it is peculiarly illustrative of the huma- 
nity of his disposition; is the more worthy of particular 
commemoration, since he ever contemplated the success that 
attended his laudable efforts in the accomplishment of so* 
beneficent an object " at* one of J the happiest incidents of 
his life :'* and with equal ardour and solicitude hashe bfeenr 
engaged in prevailing on the Chieftains of Kattywarand of 
Cutch, to renounce that inhuman custom, the existence of 
tohich, in those Provinces, had recently become known to> 
the Government. 

Selected, without selicttetio*, for the high office of Gore** 
nor of Bombay and its Dependencies, Mr. Duncan assumed* 
charge of that important situation in the month' of DtcemV 
ber, 1795. On the merits of an administration so* long and 
so eventful, it would ill-become the Members* of the present 
Government to express an opinion £ the best and' most con* 
-wincing proof of the value in which his character and hi* 
services have been held, may be found in* the long period? 
during which he enjoyed the confidence of the Honorable 
the Court of Directors ^ and in those honorable testimonies 
of approbation which the British' Legislature has* bestowed 
on the able and efficient co-operation afforded by his Go*- 
vernment .to wards the maintenance of the National Power 
and reputation in this remote quarter. of the British Empire** 

The Government being- desirous of affording every pub* 
lie demonstration of respect (or the Memory of the de- 
ceased, had resolved that his remains be deposited in* &§>- 
Church of Bombay, at the public expense, at foui o?*ioek 
on the following evening. 

A Committee, composed of Francis- Warden^ Esm Cftiet 
Secretary to the Government ; Colonel Thomas jC Back- 
hpiure,.Comroao4*ot of the Garrison of Bombay, and WiL- 
Uam Newnjutm^ Kso^ Secretary to Government, was ap. 
pointed to arrange and to conduct the mournful oeremojay. 

The Officers of His Majesty's and the Hohorable Compaq 
ny's Civile Military and Marine Services^ and the other Geo* 
tiemen of the settlement, were invited to attend on the oc- 
casion at the Government House, in Towo^ at the hour sw

of the weather, the funeral of the muoh-laraeuted, tba Ho-

SIR WILLIAM SYER, Kn*. 

RECORDER OP BOMBAYZ ' ' V 

In announcing the loss of this truly excellent and respecU 
able character, it is but justice to express the general sense 
and high estimation of his peculiar virtues and merits. As a 
man,' Sir William, Syer was ever distinguished for real worth 
and the truest principles of philanthropy and universal be- 
sjeToienct. His hospitable mansion was open to aU, and ia 



204 Cf)t Complete 

the mild and polished manners of its owner, the stranger at; 
well as friend were welcomed with affability, dignity, auf\ 
ease. Fortune leading him to a matrimonial connexion in 
this country, the same principles and the same virtues com- 
bined to exemplify in him the affectionate husband and 
food father. His private and moral character served to 
adorn the high office he was called upon to execute, and he 
closed a bright career in firm adherence to that religion 
wh*ch so eminently enlightened, "guided, and marked the 
practice of his life. In his professional capacity his loss is 
equally to be deplored. The abilities of the judge were 
here equally conspicuous with the private virtues of tike man. 
Laborious and indefatigable in his* researches for truth; 
quick and penetrating in discernment ; clear and perspicuous 
in his exppsition of facts ; lenient in punishment, and of in- 
tegrity incorruptible. His official conduct, whilst it is re- 
membered, must ever meet with the most general reverence 
and esteem, and hi* name and memory be respected for the 
fairness of his decisions, and his strict ana never»failing so- 
licitude for the administration* of justice in the department 
over which he presided. An amiable wife, with two infant 
children, were left to bewail his untimely death, and though 
her affliction must be still proportioned to her loss, it must 
be some consolation to her to know, that her respected 
partner carried with him the feeling' regret of that society of 
which he was so useful a member and so distinguished an 
ornament. — He died at {Sombay, in October 1 802. — A marblf 
monument to his memory, received from England, consists 
of a single rectangular slab of white marble, with a female 
figure in alto relievo, weeping and Jtneeling before a pillar* 
at the top of which is placed an urn inscribed with the age 
and day of his death. Beneath, and on a projecting base. 
appears the following Latin inscription :

tyeir minds ; — it i Deludes evetfy thing that is amiable in pri- 
vate life, and honorable in public. His friends and those 
near and dear relations who -are left to mourn his loss, will 
find their best consolation in the recollection of his vir? 
tues* — His progress through life, was marked by rectitude 
and integrity, and its conclusion distinguished by corres- 
pondent sentiments, of confidence and resignation. Such 
characters, while they attract the esteem and regard of all 
around them, reflect dignity on human nature itself,- and ttife 
greatest benefit that society can derive from their example, 
is to consider them as objects of imitation. — In this view, 
what an illustrious instance did out subject afford of dili- 
gence, zeal and ability, in every department of the service 
committed to his, care, and these were of the highest con. 
fideoce, importance, and dignity ; — unaffected by those dis- 
appointments personal to himself, which might have impeded 
the exertions V>f minds less directed to the attainment of ho- 
nest fame, than private fortune, his success proved the never 
failing consequences of motives so truly laudable and vir. 
juous.-— He died at Bombay on Monday the 6th June,

Eminent genius, possessed of those mere essential awd in* 
frinsfc qualities Which give tht truest excellence to the hu* 
wan character. The manners' of Doctor Leyden were un* 
courtly, more perhaps? from his detestation of the tices, too- 
generally attendant oil refinemnt, add a wish (hidnlged to 
excess front his youth} to keep at a marked distance from 
then, than from any ignorant*' of the* rules of good breed* 
ing. He was fond of talking, his vowe vrtrs lbud and bad 
Kttie or no nodnlfttrbUy and he spoke in the provincial dia- 
lect of his' native country *. it cannot be surprising therefore 
that even hh information and knowledge, when to convey^ 
should be felt by a number of his 7 hedrers* as unpleasant if 
not oppressive. But with all these 4 disadvantages (and they 
wer* great) the adnirtti en and esteem in which he> was mU 
sraysrheldby those* who could appreciate his qaultti**, bew 
e*me general wherever he was* leng known j they etenf whe> 
4ould not understand the value of his knowledge loved bt* 
virtue*. Though ho woe distinguished by hhrlore of liber* 
ty, and almost naughty independence,, his ardent feelings} 
and proud genius, never led him into any lieeatious or er* 
fravagant speculation* en political- subjects. He never soli- 
cited faro r r but he was raised, By the liberal discernment of 
his noble friend and patron Lorti Minto, to situations that 
afforded him* aa> opportunity of shewing, that he was a i 
scrupulous and as inflexibly tfrtuous in the discharge of hie 
public duties r as he was attentive ie private life to the. duties' 
ef morality and religion. /* 

It is not easy to eontey an idea of the method which" 
Doctor Leyden used in his studies, or to describe the un«* 
conquerable ardor with which these were pursued* During 
his early residence in India I had a particular opportunity 
ef observing both. When' he read a lesson in Persian, a per-* 
eon near him whom he had taught, wrote down each word 
on a leng slip of paper, which was afterwards divided into 
as many pieces as there were words, and pasted in alphabeti- 
cal order under different heads of verbs, nounsj &c. into' a 
blank book that formed a Vocabulary of each day's lesson.

live to do, and this man he used in his broad accent to call 
" one of his Mechanical aids.',' He was so ill at Mysore, sooa 
after his arrival from England, that Mr. Andersou, the Sur- 
geon who attended him, despaired of his life ; but though ail 
his friends endeavoured at this period to prevail upon him to 
relax in his application to study, it was in rain* He used, 
when unable to sit upright, to prop himself up with, pillows 
and continue .his translations. One day that I was sitting 
by his bed-side, the Surgeon came in : "I am glad you are 
here, said Mr. Anderson, addressing himself to me, you will 
be able to persuade Ley den to attend to my advice. I have 
told him before, and I now repeat, that he will die if he does 
not leave off his studies and remain quiet." " Very well, 
Doctor, exclaimed Ley den, you have done your duty ; but 
you must now hear me, 1 cannot be idle, and whather I die 
or li?e, the wheel must go round to the last;" and he actual* 
ly continued under the depression of a fever, and a lifer 
complaint, to study more than ten hours each day. 
. Jh« temper of Doctor Ley den was mild and generous, 
and he could bear, with perfect good humour, raillery ott 
his foibles. When he arrived at Calcutta in 1805, I was 
jnost solicitous regarding his reception in the society of the 
Indian. Capital. " I entreat you, my dear friend, (I said to 
Sim) -the day he landed, to.be careful of the impression you. 
make x>n your entering this community ; for God's sake 
learn a little English, and be silent upon literary subjects 
except among literary men." " Learn English, he exclaim- 
ed, no, never, it was, trying to learn that language that 
spoilt my Scotch ; and as to being silent I will promise to 
bold my tongue, if you will make fools hold theirs." 

His memory was most tenacious, and Ee sometimes loaded 
it with lumber. When he was at Mysore, an argument oc- 
curred upon a point of English History ; it was agreed to 
refer it to Leyden, and to the astonishment of all parties, he 
x repeated verbatim the whole of an Act of Parliament in the 
"reign of James the I. relative to Ireland, which decided the 
point in dispute. On being asked how he came to charge 
bis memory with such extraordinary matter? He said that 
several years before, when he was writing on the changes that 
had taken place in the English language, this Act was one of 
the documents to which he had referred as a specimen of the 
stile of that age, aud that he had retained every word in his 
memory. 

His love of the place of his nativity was a passion in which 
be bad always a pride x and which in India he cherished with 
the fondest enthusiasm. I once went to see tyai when he 
was very ill and hid been confined to his bed for many days; 
there were several gentlemen in the room ; he inquired if I

had any news ; I told bim I had a letter from Eskdale ; and 
what are they about in the borders ? he asked. A curious 
circumstance, I replied, is stated in my letter ; and I read 
him a passage which described the conduct of our volunteers 
on a fire being kindled by mistake at one of the Beacons. 
This letter mentioned that the moment the blaze, which was 
the signal of Invasion was seeo,the Mountaineers hastened 
to their rendezvous, and those of Ledesdale swam the Ewes 
River to reach it. They were assembled (though several of 
their houses were at a distance of six and seven miles) in two 
hours, and at break of day the party marched into the town 
of Hawick (a distance of twenty miles from the place of as- 
sembly) to the border tune of u Wha dar meddle wi* me?'*. 
'Ley den's countenance became animated as I proceeded with 
this detail, and at its close he sprung from his sick bed, and 
with strange melody and still stranger gesticulations, sung 
loud, u Wha dar meddle voV me? Wha dar meddle wi 9 
me ?" Several of those who witnessed this scene looked at 
hint as one that was raving in the delirium of a fever* 

These anecdotes will display more fully than any descrip- 
tion I can give the lesser shades of the character of this ex- 
traordinary man. An external manner certainly not agree- 
able, and a disposition to egotism, were his only defects* 
How trivial do these appear, at a moment when we are lament- 
ing the loss of such a rare combination of virtues, learning 
and genius as were concentrated in the late Doctor Leyden.

TO THE MEMORY 

OF 

DOCTOR JOHN LEYDEN, 

WHO DIED AT JAVA 
IN THE MONTH OF jdUGUST, 1811. 

The lofty Oak whom time has reared on high, 

And ages served as footsteps to the sky, 

Whose ponderous arms their shade extending wide* 

Are long the forest's ornament and pride, 

With years and honors satiate— sinks away, 

In gradual death and dignified decay. 

Not Leyden such thy fortune. Death's dark power 
With speed malignant urged the final hour, 
Thy talents blighted in their fullest bloom, 
And plunged expanded genius in the tomb. 

Why is it thus,— Why should the eagle soul 
Be checked, when mounting to a glorious goal ? 
Let tribes that live to frolic in the sun, 
Their course unmeaning in a mon.ent run*

Let fate contract life's amply lengthened space* 
For those whose passions only mark their race. 
Bat why should Death the spreading wings arrest, 
Of him who soars to what is wise and best ? 
Who spurns the narrow orb to Mortals given, 
Aod waves his pinions at the gates of Heaven 1 

Yet vain the task the will of fate to scan, 
To weep and suffer, is the lot of man, 
To cherish sorrow fondly foster grief* 
And e'en in woe's indulgence find relief. 
Come then, Remembrance, wake thy friendly art, 
To paint the picture nearest to my hcaft ; 
Before my eyes bid Leyden's phantom swim, 
And all that falls and perishes with him. 

J. witnessed not Jus dawn, but noontide strength, 
A morn denoted, of no common length ; 
No slender toils the mighty pile to raise;, 
That few can equal in their best of days :

The imperishable founts of classic lore ; 
His stronger steps had travesrsed later fields,. 
To reap the harvest cultured Europe yields.

Amidst romances flower- entangled way, 
To seek oblivion's dark and mouldering bed, 
And save some precious reliques of the dead. 
For him had Science cleared her widest views, 
And Genius walked the warbltngs of the Muse. 

(3) But most should Asia mourn, 'twas his to trace 
"With partial care the secrets of her race, 

fo clear the clouds of ignorance'away, 

And fill the Orient with reflected day. 

Vain was the strife of tongues ; for India beard, 

Prom him the widely variegated word, v ' 

And countless tribes upon his accents hung, 

To catch the music of their native tongue. 

(4) And not the barren melody alone ; 
He made the spirit of the spell his own, 
The Persian's mystic rapture, and the lovei 
That echo sweetly through Malaya's groves.

HONORABLE CHARLES ANDREW BRUCE, 

IATK QtrKMMOB OW FMJNCB OF WALES ULAND, AND IT* DMFKNt>**~, 

ClE9 y h)C. 

' To those sad events, of which thecommisseration is increas- 
ed by every reflection on the bitterness of reverse and on* 
expected opcurreqces, is to be added the decease of the 
Honorable Charles Andrew Bruce, Governor of Prince of 
Wales Island audits Dependencies^ in the full rigour of man- 
hood, in the joy of affluence and station; blest in the possessi- 
on of present happiness, and warm in rational views of pro- 
longed felicity, a sodden blow has disturbed the dream of en- 
joyment, and shewn that real satisfaction must be found on, 
other basis than the falacies of hope. 

His illness, which in its first stage was attended with ex* 
cessive pain, was supported with exemplary firmness and 
resignation. The progress of sickness was watched with 
ealmness ; his family supported with manly tenderness, and 
the unremitting attentions of those whose skill combated the 
disorder, acknowledged with grateful consideration. The 
last hours were cheered by a retrospect of tranquil blessings 
of which death might interrupt the course ; but could not, 
in his approach banish the recollection* To those who wit- 
nessed the scene, may it be one of lasting example. It may 
not be without use hastily to collect the leading traits of a 
life, that gave the greatest comfort, the comfort of peace, 
at the last. 

In the nearer relations of life, never did man display more 
engaging sweetness of disposition, more affectionate interest, 
more unvarying regard,— the anguish of recent misfortune 
flies from considerations the most consolatory, under the 
hallowing influence of time. In the relation of father, hus- 
band, friend, who that knew him, can need any recital of his 
worth? To his domestics he was liberal and tender, and 
in every office of general intercourse, polite, affable, equaf. 

i 

The virtues that thus beautified the walk of private life, 
operated with enlarged influence in a range extended : — It 
was a mind full of active good-will, satisfying itself with no 
visionary schemes of benevolence unless it were not unmix., 
ed with fancy, to have thought that public benefits might aU

ways coincide with individual happiness. In no case was he 
ever actuated by a selfish view. The motives were ever 
pure and just ; the course direct and honorable. He 
thought injury to no man. They who saw him nearest, 
best know, that scarcely could caution hint at possible evil, 
-when native goodness had palliated the error, or lost the 
suggestion. 

Such he was in private life, that to doubt the impression 
of his memory on his friends, were to doubt all that is of 
worth in human nature. In the varying record of public 
recollection, the course of things must preserve the strong 
characters of leading events rather than the value of milder 
virtues ; but of public judgment, the expression of the pub- 
lic concern during his illness has shewn that the report may 
justly be lasting. 

That qualities such as these should not have been permit- 
ted longer to spread their influence, or longer to be remu- 
nerated with what of enjoyment virtue has here to 
bestow, is but an additional cause to revere the dispen- 
sations of that law, which though its decrees may baffle the 
calculation of human retribution, shall assuredly secure to 
integrity, and honour, and benevolence their fixed and 
eternal reward ! 

He died at Prince of Wales Island, early on the morning 
pf the 26th December, 1810, at the age of 42 years.

TO THE POOR THE GOSPEL WAS PREACHED 

IN THIS CHURCH 

BY 

THE REVD. DAVID BROWN 

TWENTY-FIVE YEARS, 

OBT. AT. CALCUTTA, 14th JUNE, 1812, ^t. 49. 

\_ 

REVEREND DAVID BROWN, 

9ENI0E CH4P^diy Off THE BENGAL Z3TJBU9RMtEJ(T+ 

Mr. Brown arrived in India io the year 1785, and was 
appointed to a Clerical charge at the Presidency in the year 
1788. For many years, besides his regular official duties 
at the New Church, he voluntarily and gratoitdusly per* 
formed those of the Old Church , to which no Minister had 
then been attached* On the foundation of a College at 
fort William, in the* year 1800, he was selected by Mar- 
quis Wellesley to fill the station of Provost, under a Rule 
which made it his duty to receive the junior Civil Servants 
of the Company on their first arrival at Fort William, 
" to superintend and regulate their general morals anfl 
" conduct: to assist them with his advice and admonition, 
€( and to instruct and confirm them in the principles of the 
*' Christian Religion, according to the doctrine, discipline, 
" and rites of the Church, of England, as established bjr 
*' Law.' 1 Since the discontinuance of the Office of Pro? 
vost, Mr. Brown has been actively engaged, as a Member 
of the Corresponding Committee of the British and F°* 
' reign Bible Society, in making known and promoting the 
object of that Society, vis. a general inculcation of the 
Scriptures without note or comment ; an object to which 
his mind, heart, and time, were devoted during the latter 
years of his life ; and in prosecution of which he earnestly 
and successfully recommended the Institution of an Auxw 
liarf Bible Society at Calcutta. To this Society he, was ap- 
pointed Secretary, In February, 181 i, and tie senffe enter* 
iained of his services in that situation, was expressed by a 
provision and resolution passed at a general meeting of the 
Society held in February last, that u the warmest ackhow. 
*' ledgments be made to the Reverend David Brewn, Se. 
" cretary to this Society, for (he very essential se prices 
♦"* which he has rendered by his able and indefatigable exer. 
" tions, to promote the objects of the Institution.'* 

His distinguished character as a pious Christian, a zealous 
Minister, auji an Orthodox Preacher of the doctrines of the 



«€harah of Kagland, according to. the Articles and Liturgy, 
will be long held in esteem and respect by the Aienibers of 
this community ; whilst those who knew him in pri?at« life, 
will retain an affectionate remembrance of his amiable dia. 
position, unaffected simplicity of mariners, and many en? 
d earing -virtues. He has left a numerous family and respect- 
able circle of friends, both here and in England, to feel and 
lament his loss. 

Mr. Brown died on Sunday the 14th June, 1812, at the 
House of J. H. Harington, Esq, at Chowtinghee, in hi* 
49th year.

Freed from the dreary troubles vale of life, 
Here rests the " Husband y Father and the Friend." . 
Sickness aod Health forego their wonted strife ; 
Peatb's ebon darts, their opposition end* 

A Eunevel Sermon, to the memory of the late Rev. Da> 
▼id Brown, was preached at St* John's Church, on Sunday 
morning, the 21st June, by the I£ev. D. Corrie ; and a no* 
ther, at the Old Church, in the evening, by the- Rev. T. 
Thoraaeori. yfe have neither time, nor ability, to do justice 
to these excellent Discourses ; -the former of which had re- 
ference chiefly to Mr. Brown's private life and character, as 
a sincere Christian ; the latter to his professional and pub- 
lic capacity as a faithful Minister of the Go$peL We shall 
merely observe, that Mr- Corrie, who chose for his Teat 
the 37th Verse of the 37th Psalm : " Mark the perfect man, 
" and behold the upright ; for the end of that man is peace,'* 
<' had long been intimately acquainted with the deceased ; 
and having accompanied him to the Dover Cattle, with the 
Intention of proceeding on that ship to Madras, wa,i with 
;him .during much of the trying sickness which preceded hi* 
death. Mr. Thomason, who succeeded Mr. Brown tu th0 
Ministry of the Old Church, selected, as an appropriate 
Text for the evening Sermon, the words of our §aviour tq 
his Disciples, in the 35th and following Verses of the 4th, 
Chapter of St. John ; " Say not ye there are yet fouj 
" months, and then cometh harvest | Behold, 1 say unto, 
" you, lift pp your eyes, and look on the fields; for they 
" are white already to harvest. And he that reap? 
" eth, reeeiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eter t 
" nal ; that botfy he that soweth, and he that reapeth, may 
u rejoice together. And herein is that saying true, one. 
" soweth, and another 'reapeth. I sent you to reap that 
" whereon ye bestowed do labour ; other men laboured t 
<c and ye are entered into their labours.*' We were gratis 
fied in hearing from the Pulpit an honourable testimonial tq 
the increase of piety and true religion in this settlement j 



222 fltfimfca. * 

and ^bould not perform our doty, if we did not add, thtt ft 
important an effect was ascribed, in part, to- the opportunity 
of attending the Sunday Evening Seifice, and Scriptural 
Lecture 06 Thursday evenings ; both of which were intro- 
duced, at the Old Church, by the late Mr. Brown ; and are 
now continued by his successor, with the occasional aid ftf 
other Clergymen, 

We shall conclude this short notice of the two Funeral 
Discourses above mentioned, by remarking that the number 
of ttie congregations who attended to hear them, especially 
at the Old Church, (which was hung with black on this so* 
lemn and mournful occasion), evinced the strong interest felt 
in the subject of them, with a desire to shew this last mark 
of respect to a revered and belpvec) Faston 

Light lies the Turf upon the peaceful breast. 
Whose mansion pore/?tc earth-born passions ttaJu'd ; 
'Where pride ne'er gloom'd on its continual rest, 
Nor factions Envy with her breath profan'd. 

His death involv'd thee in this cloud of night, 
While hope and pleasure beam'd their cheerful ray | 
So fades Aurora's ineffectual light, 
When the dark evening circumscribe* the day. 

Cart, Pain and Grief, terrific gloom no more, 
Bat teem to pave a Golden-way to Heaven f 
The race to reach, the distant Goal is o'er, 
^be Tail is ended, and the Priw€ is given,
